The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

This archive contains a single program disguised as a CAD viewer behind a document-style name. 31 of the 68 antivirus engines that checked it flag it, including eight major antivirus engines; DrWeb, Ikarus and Kaspersky label it a .NET remote-access backdoor (Quasar or AsyncRAT). It also references public IP-lookup services that such backdoors use to profile victims.

Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
  • family labels from major antivirus engines split between Quasar and AsyncRAT, so the exact family is not settled, though both are .NET remote-access backdoors.
  • No sandbox run is available, so the backdoor behaviour is inferred from detections and static indicators rather than observed.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.

Threat context

How remote-access malware works

This opens a secret way into the computer. Once it runs, an attacker can control the PC from anywhere: see the screen, read files, install more malware or use the machine to attack others.

Bottom line:It is built to stay hidden and keep that connection open for as long as possible.

Our file inspection

Programs inside

We opened the uploaded ZIP archive in an isolated sandbox and read its structure without running it. It contains programs. Our inspection reads the structure and the code of the first program; whether the programs are safe is judged by the antivirus and sandbox evidence.

  • LowT1566.001T1204.002

    An archive holds a single program next to documents or pictures, the way malware is often sent with decoy files. Software downloads also ship a program with a manual, so on its own this is only context.
